		magicalhippo 9 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Google confirms Android attacks; no fix for most S... I've been Samsung since S3, but recently picked up a cheap Motorola as a secondary. Been pretty satisfied with it, clearly not as fancy as the S23 I got, but decent enough. However they only get 2 years of Android updates, and I'm getting spammed by Motorola at least once a week of not more to install some silly game or whatnot. I've also not been terribly impressed by the UX changes Samsung has made recently, lots of questionable decisions there. What other decent options are out there?

https://www.androidauthority.com/phone-update-policies-16586... has summary of phone manufacturers update policy. It looks like for now the answer is: if you don't want an IPhone then grab Pixel and install GrapheneOS on it.

So no decent options for out-of-box experience.
